Status Points

With Status Points, every Air New Zealand flight1 now counts towards your tier status.

Now even Smart Saver and grabaseat fares earn Status Points, helping you reach a higher tier status faster. Once you've reached Silver, Gold or Gold Elite status, you'll enjoy a range of exclusive benefits and privileges whenever you travel with Air New Zealand or our Star Alliance partners.


How We Work Out Your Status Points

You can earn Status Points by flying on Air New Zealand Flights1, as well as many flights with our Star Alliance partners.

On Air New Zealand flights where you earn Airpoints Dollars™, you can earn an equal number of Status Points. See the accrual table for details. On Air New Zealand flights that don't earn Airpoints Dollars (e.g. Smart Saver and grabaseat), you can earn Status Points at the Discount Economy rate.
